Instructions for use
In the event of a power failure, do not open the
door. Frozen foods should not spoil if the cut lasts
less than 13 hours. If the cut is longer, inspect the
food and eat it immediately or cook it and then
freeze it again.
B) Freezer compartment
defrosting type VENTILATED COLD is fully
automatic. No action on your part is required. The
water is collected in the compressor tank. From
the heat of the compressor, the water evaporates.
Never use hair dryers, electric heaters or
similar electrical appliances to defrost.
Warnings!
The freezer compartment fan circulates cold air.
Never insert objects behind the protection. Make
sure that children do not play with the freezer fan.
Never store products containing flammable
propellant gas (cream spray, aerosol cans, etc.) or
explosive substances. Do not cover the shelves with
protective materials that could obstruct air
circulation. Make sure that children do not play with
the appliance and do not touch the controls. Do not
obstruct the freezer fan guard to ensure the best
performance of your device (figure 8).
Warning !
Your appliance is equipped with a circulation fan
which is essential for the operation of the freezer.
Please ensure that the fan is not blocked (stopped)
or obstructed by food or packaging. Any blockage
(stopping) or obstruction of the fan can cause the
internal temperature of the freezer to rise (defrost).
Freezing fresh produce
Please adhere to the following instructions for best
results. Don't freeze too much at a time. The quality
of food is best preserved when it is completely frozen
as quickly as possible. Do not exceed the freezing
power of your device for 24 hours. Placing hot food
in the freezer will cause the refrigeration device to
operate continuously until the food is cold.
fully frozen. This may cause temporary
overcooling of the
refrigerator compartment. When freezing fresh
produce, leave the setting knob in the middle
position. Small amounts of food not exceeding 0.5
kg (1 lb) can be frozen without having to adjust the
temperature control. Be particularly careful not to
mix already frozen products and fresh products.
Ice making
Fill the ice cube trays up to ¾ full with water and
place them in the freezer. Open the ice cube trays
using the handle of a spoon or similar tool, never
use sharp objects such as knives or forks.
Interior bulb replacement
Defrost
To replace the LED lamp of the refrigerator, please
contact the authorized after-sales service. The
lamp(s) used in this appliance are not suitable for
kitchen lighting. The intended purpose of this light
is to help the user place food in the fridge/freezer
in a safe and comfortable manner. Indicators used
in this device must withstand extreme physical
conditions such as temperatures below -20°C.
A) Refrigerator compartment
The refrigerator
compartment defrosts automatically. Defrost water
drains through the drain tube and flows into the
drain pan at the rear of the unit (figure 6) . During
defrosting, water droplets may form at the back of
the refrigerator compartment, where an evaporator
is concealed. Droplets may remain on the tank and
freeze after defrosting is complete. Do not use
pointed or sharp objects such as knives or forks to
remove re-frozen droplets. If at any time the defrost
water is not draining through the collection gutter,
check that no food particles are blocking the drain
tube. The drain tube can be unblocked using a pipe
cleaner or other similar tool. Check that the tube is
placed permanently in such a way that its end is in
the drip tray located on the compressor in order to
prevent water from coming into contact with the
electrical installation or the ground (figure 7) .
Cleaning and maintenance
1. Before cleaning, please unplug the refrigerator
and pull out the power plug.
2. Never use sharp utensils or abrasive substances,
soap, household cleaners, detergents or shoe polish
to clean it. 3. Use lukewarm water to clean the body
and dry thoroughly with a cloth.
4. Use a damp cloth soaked in a solution of one
teaspoon of baking soda to half a liter of water to
clean the interior and dry thoroughly.
